Counter-point of the past 3 weeks

A lot of people are talking about these sensationalized stories where Jimbo was in, then countered, and we decided in the 3rd quarter to keep Miles. Here's a more realistic view of what happened:

1) Rabalais wrote a poorly sourced, opinionated column suggestion Miles could be playing for his job.

2) National media ran with the column because that's how they get news: sourcing from locals.

3) As we continue to lose, people start churning the typical rumor mill with big names that would be amazing if we got. In reality, there's only 3 people involved in a coaching search at the Athletic Department. The idea that one of them is leaking info is insane.

4) At 7-0, 7-1, 7-2, 7-3, Alleva never seriously considered firing Miles. No search was being done. No talks were being had. None. The craziest thing is that he never came out and stopped the rumors. That's the insane part.

5) Joe Schad reports his source says a decision was made to keep Miles during the 3rd quarter. Who is this source? There's only a handful of people that are involved in this decision. Is it more likely one of them is leaking info to Joe Schad for no reason, or that he's reporting BS to cover his previous report that Miles was already canned and we were in deep talks with Jimbo?

6) When Alleva announces Miles is staying, people start generating stories that somehow perfectly fit all of the surrounding rumors together into a nice neat package.

The last one is important to remember because people have posted "what happened" which would've required them to have inside info into: FSU admin discussions, conversations between Sexton and Alleva, secret Booster Meetings during the 3rd quarter, and conversations between King and Alleva. So either the people describing what happened are omnipresent, or they're trying to build a story that matches every rumor they've heard over the past 3 weeks into something that makes sense.
